Liverpool are set to complete a transfer for Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, according to Fabrizio Romano on Twitter.
Romano says that Mac Allister has signed a contract that will keep him at the club until 2028. Additionally, the Reds have reportedly paid less than the reported asking price of £60 million.
The signing of Mac Allister has largely gone down well with Liverpool supporters. The Reds are in desperate need of reinforcements in midfield – the Argentinian World Cup winner should be an excellent addition to Liverpool’s ranks in the middle of the park.
Despite this, other Liverpool fans believe that the signing of Mac Allister is insufficient – at least, as things stand. They believe that, on top of Mac Allister, they will also need to sign a defensive midfielder in the summer transfer window.

I believe in Klopp, none of his signings were classed as world class until they played under him and gained that world class status, so I trust Jurgen
